In today's Pelican Rapids Press a long time employee comes out swinging in defense of her Boss. Why is this necessary? I guess not all of us are privvy to any allegations. Has Janteloven raised it's ugly head yet again? Is "Minnesota Nice" a myth or just history?
Janteloven - The Commandments of Jante:
1. You shall not think that you ARE something.
2. You shall not think that you are as much as US.
3. You shall not think that you are wiser than US.
4. You shall not imagine that you are better than US.
5. You shall not think that you know more than US
6. You shall not think that you are better than US.
7. You shall not think that YOU are good at anything.
8. You shall not laugh at US.
9. You shall not think that anyone cares about YOU.
10. You shall not think that you can teach US anything.
The term “the Commandments of Jante” is used to describe a way of thinking in the Scandinavian countries. It first appeared in the book “En flyktning krysser sine spor” by the Danish author Aksel Sandemose, a book about the small fictional village Jante.
